"Some lose yet gain, others gain and..." - Quote by Lao Tzu

“. . . Intelligence is not the same thing as wisdom.”

“He does not feel pity for himself - thus he can successfully develop.”

“Excellent conquerors do not engage.”

“If I knew what the meaning of art was, I wouldn't tell you.”

“The leader is a teacher who succeeds without taking credit. And, because credit is not taken, credit is received.”

“The paradox of the prophet: his very success is his failure. The prophet whose time has come no longer shocks; he entertains.”

“For everything you gain, you lose something.”

“You never gain something but that you lose something.”

“Bad gains are true losses.”
